Notes from our sommelier:

2024 William Lane Wine Co. “Duas Terras Vineyard” Assyrtiko, Paso Robles, California | Pair with our featured "Cold" dishes

~ "This wine is paired with our crudo course on the tasting menu. It's made from the Greek grape Assyrtiko with just a touch of Chardonnay. A great spring wine, it's fresh with acid and minerality and slightly salty. It's tasty with raw fish!"
